Morning all. I had a slightly eventual journey on the m25 at the weekend when the right side spark cable decided to detach itself without warning. I’d just filled the car up so initially thought the pops and bangs might be due to overfilling the tank. It was only after continuing to drive that I realised I was running on one cylinder which was a bit hairy on the motorway. Fortunately I managed to peal off and the first thing I checked gave me the answer. After plugging the lead back in I was on my way with no further issues apart from a yellowed right exhaust.

Has anyone had the same issue? Is there a trick to making the cable stick or should I just get a new one? Thanks.
